Yeah, Ive got all those blue background swooshes... Jaguar, Tiger,
whatever... googled them. Even use the Tiger version on my Power Mac 8600.
Guys, try DragThing if you don't like OS X dock. Used that on my pre-OS
X machines from the get-go (1996). You can customize its look... at
least you can with the old versions... I like both Tiger/ Leo and
haven't bothered with OS X DragThing

I hope that in 10.7 they switch away from the pink backgrounds. I miss the old
blue swooshes. They were so elegant, and really made Macs pop. Even the new

rather then the dumb pink aurora.
It's interesting to see how different things bother (or attract)
different people. In my case, I love almost everything about the new
"slate" look (love the name, very appropriate, Elliott). Even the so-
debated new iTunes look --after the initial WTF moment, I find it the
most unobtrusive iTunes skin ever. I keep my Dock very, very full, and
very minimized, so the 3D works better for me than a looooong
rectangle at the bottom of my screen.
You can have the blue swooshes back, you know. Just copy them from a
Tiger-running computer. I get bored very quickly with the supplied set
of desktop backgrounds that every OS comes with, and get my own
anyway. Same with screensavers --I use Electric Sheep, which is way,
way cool.
